Hemet, CA — Grading Permit Bond
Hemet's grading surety form backs the permit applicant's code compliance, completion and reimbursement for city corrective work. The city's published standards tie the security to work satisfactory to the City Engineer—not a fixed one-year term for every grading bond.

What this bond does
The published Grading Permit Surety Bond names the City of Hemet as recipient and identifies the principal's grading permit and property. Its conditions include complying with the code and permit, finishing within the permit period and extensions, and reimbursing city work needed because of the principal's failure.
- Who needs it
- The grading permit applicant required as principal. The city's submittal distinguishes owner, engineer, contractor and applicant, so match the actual security instructions rather than automatically putting the excavation subcontractor on the bond.
- Who it protects
- The undertaking supports completion, correction and specified public-safety work. It also addresses reasonable court-fixed attorney fees in a bond action and continued obligations despite permit/work changes. It is distinct from a liability policy and from the packet's bank letter of credit.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Is every Hemet grading surety a one-year bond?
The grading security provision continues through satisfactory completion. The standards' separate planting-inspection wording does not establish a one-year purchased term for every grading undertaking.
Do changes to the permit automatically end the bond?
The sample surety expressly preserves its obligation despite changes, extensions or modifications to the permit or work. Obtain the accepted current wording and any required change documentation.
